      This was great, I have been researching "mispriced items law michigan" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Genubrey Mispriced Infiltration - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my partner got excellent success with it.

    I have never really had problems with any type of math formulas. I have had to work a little harder solving some moreso than others, however, I could never NOT solve them. Then came Black-Scholes. I was truly flabbergasted. Then I saw your tutorial and excel sheet. It is excellent. It walks you through everything! Thank you so much!!!

  • @thebookwasbetter3650

    Had an accounting professor who used the 'chalkboard method' of teaching where you write it out instead of using power point presentations (of which there are way too many of in business school.) When you write it out, it really does feel like you are with the professor the entire time. Like your minds are one.

    I'm so glad you posted this clear and concise demonstration of the BSOPM. As a math major, I had always been curious about this model because my friends in the financial mathematics program were always talking about how fundamental it was to their studies. Now that the BSOPM is demystified some I don't feel as intimidated by it as when I knew nothing of it, a similar experience as when another youtube video demystified Fourier series calculations for me. Thanks!!!

    Excellent presentation. Once you know the SD and the variation, you can actually covert these numbers into a standard normal distribution. Then, using a z score, you can see the probable outcomes. The model is using variation (volitility and risk) as a measure of probable outcomes.

    Great explanation! Would like to see you perform a couple examples using the BSOPM to identify the implied volatility for the particular underlying. I understand this is just working the formula a slightly different way with the variables at hand, but your followers would greatly appreciate - especially in-light of the importance of IV in options trading. Cheers!

    It depends on how precise your standard normal table is and how precise you want your answer. I used Excel to generate a standard normal table that is pretty precise (from -1.00 to 1.00 every hundredth, from from 2.00 to 3.00 every two-hundreths, and five hundredths beyond there) to use for my class, so the students are not expected to interpolate. In practice, you would like use a spreadsheet or canned program that would generate exact values.
